Halloween Weekend

Spidergirl and Spiderman are all ready from their sleepover at Gram's for a day of Halloween festivities!

We meet up with some friends for the downtown Edwardsville Trick or Treating.
Lexi, Julia, Nicolas, Ryan and Tyler sit during a rare moment in between sugar highs!

Halloween night, we were invited to the Busch Halloween party and finished off the night in tradition with the Edwardsville Halloween Parade! Ryan and Mattie are anxious for the parade to begin!

Pumpkin Farm, round 2!

Ry was off school today, so we went back to the pumpkin farm so he could find his "perfect" pumpkin.

My goofball and his friend, Andrew see who can balance the "baby" pumpkin on their head the longest. Note to self: this is a GREAT game to get two 5 year old boys to stand still for more than 30 seconds!

Halloween Parade

In our area, everyone trick or treats the night before Halloween, and attends a large parade on Halloween. Our Batman spent most of the parade by his two girlfriends, Josie and Izzy.

And off goes the mask...gotta see to get more candy!

We decided to grab some Mexican after the festivities. Ryan and Izzy requested their own table. Humm...

And Julia and Josie sat together...maybe not the wisest decision we've ever made. Julia spilled her chocolate milk all over. Like ALL OVER the place. I think our waiter might have gotten the biggest tip ever after this visit, as Jeff felt really bad for the "trouble" we'd caused!

Pumpkin Carving

Just FYI this is not your regular blogger; this is the handsome husband so often mentioned. I thought I would post what I...ur I mean the kids were able to carve with Grumpy's tools.



And the results of all this mess....
